Enclosed Trailer Buying Guide

Buying Enclosed Trailers

Trailers are essential purchases for many people. Buying a trailer can make it very easy for you to safely transport cargo. Enclosed trailers are what the majority of people choose for a variety of different reasons. There are many options available to you when you want to purchase a trailer. It can be very confusing to make a decision. One of the first options you have is whether to buy an open or enclosed trailer. If you value your cargo and your investment, you should choose an enclosed trailer for a variety of reasons. Such as:

  • Enclosed trailers offer many features over open trsilers. One feature they offer is protection against bad weather. Imagine carrying precious cargo only to have it ruined in a rainstorm! Enclosed trailers can completely eliminate this problem, as your cargo will not be exposed to the elements.
  • Enclosed trailers have either double or single doors that open and shut. These allow you to have easy access to your cargo inside while protecting your investment. Some enclosed trailers even have a ramp. This makes it possible to put things like large vehicles inside enclosed car haulers. Once the vehicle is up to the ramp, they fold up and the doors shut.
  • Another reason to choose enclosed trailers is that they can be locked. If you are staying overnight somewhere or will be away for an extended period of time it is essential to lock your cargo up. Nothing is worse than coming back to your truck to find your things have been stolen! An enclosed trailer can do a lot to prevent theft.
  • Despite all of these wonderful things, some people prefer open trailers to enclosed trailers. One reason they give for this is that they consider enclosed trailers to be too heavy. This may be true if you only have a light load in your open trailer. However, an open trailer simply does not have the structure and that enclosed trailers have.
  • It can be noted though that the extra weight adds durability to enclosed trailers. You can rest assured that your cargo is safe and securr in enclosed trailers. There is little risk of your items being too heavy for enclosed trailers, and you don't need to worry about things falling out.

People are usually turned off by the higher cost of enclosed trailers. They are attracted to open trailers because they think they will be saving money. However, many people end up buying enclosed trailers later on because they've discovered that open trailers just do not meet their trailer needs. You can end up spending a good deal more than if you had just purchased an enclosed trailer, to begin with! It would be a real shame to make the wrong choice when buying cargo trailers because they are a large investment.

If the cargo you transport is important to you, you will want to buy an enclosed trailer. Enclosed trailers offer the durability and protection you need. Even though enclosed trailers are more expensive they are still a smart economical choice because of the quality they will provide to you.

Had the pleasure of buying our first trailer for our new business from them this weekend. And let me say I can’t say enough about this company. From the first call with Donna, till we drove off the lot hooked up, they were absolutely amazing! Their inventory is intensive yes, but the customer service is extraordinary! Our purchase experience start with a transfer to Zach who was welcoming and extremely knowledgeable! Shancie took care of the financing and made everything so easy and simple, and Tammy was fast with our paperwork! Noah and Ryan went above and beyond for the install and hookup of all the accessories we choose! These folks are the best around and hire the most wonderful crew! Highly recommend them for any trailer purchase or service needs!

I would like to take a minute and recognize several people at NC trailers. From the start it was Zach & Sam in sales which went above and beyond the process of helping me pick the correct trailer and helping me complete all necessary paperwork when I was literally 1800 miles away driving down the road.Shanice in financing made financing the trailer simple and quick, and behind the scenes Tammy in tag/title department was doing her magic so it all came together as one cohesive unit the day of picking the trailer up.Speaking of picking up the trailer, Ryan & Noah truly went above and beyond expectations working in the pouring rain, while not compromising standards of making sure everything went smoothly and that I was hooked up correctly while taking the time to fully go over every aspect of the trailer and how to hook and unhook the trailer.Tyler in Service & Parts was very helpful with information regarding the Gooseneck hitch for my next trailer.Thank you to each Team member of NC trailers. I HIGHLY recommend this company to anyone needing a trailer.So, if you need any type of trailer, accessory or even a repair, NC trailers should be your First and only stop. They truly make you feel like Family and the trailers are rated top in the Industry and priced very reasonably.Head on over to NC trailers and get your trailer today. Tell them Mitch with a “M” not a “B” sent you, and you should receive an extra smile or two.

I have to say I had great experience with the staff at NCtrailers in Thomasville, NC. The staff up there were amazing. I had the pleasure of being David’s first sale for his new career dealing in this type of equipment. He has had many years in sales and it shows but he decided to venture into a new atmosphere of sales. Working through the contract side of things Shanice was very thorough and was able to give me all the details I needed. She was so inviting and made you feel comfortable through would could be a stressful process.Tammy was a sweetheart with the tag and title paper work and talked me through all the necessary links and info I would need to setup the last little bit of info.Ryan and Noah had me all hooked up and ready to go and even took the time to help me find a short in my connection on my truck so I would be comfortable knowing all the lights and everything worked properly on the new trailer.All in all I had a great experience with the entire staff from parts to sales to service. I will most definitely be recommending them to anyone I know for their trailer needs.Now wish me luck on my lawn care company venture.Lawn Legends LLC.

After searching many sites, I settled on calling NC Trailers of Thomasville, NC. Zach was very helpful over the phone answering my questions. After I decided on a trailer I drove 3 1/2 hours to arrive at their location only 30 minutes before they closed. They didn’t mind my late arrival or staying to complete the sale. I changed my mind on the trailer I wanted and Shaun was very quick to redo all the paperwork for the sale. Noah was also helpful in going over the trailer with me and answering questions I had. And thank you Tammy for saving me a trip to NCDMV, at NC Trailers they can do your DMV registration and you leave with tags already installed. The trailer pulled smoothly all the home.

This company was great! Zach showed us great options, and helped us pick the perfect trailer for our needs. Shawn explained all of the extra packages we could add to it, and finalized the contract. Tammy did a great job at making sure we had our title, tag,and registration taken care of. And, Ryan and Noah got us hooked up and ready to go. Because they have an on-site parts and service department they were able to install the needed brake controller the our truck wasn't equipped with. Wonderful place. Will definitely recommend!
